Streamflow simulation is often challenging in mountainous watersheds because of irregular
topography and complex hydrological processes. Rates of change in precipitation and …

Closed topographic basins are found beneath contemporary ice masses and within the
footprint of former ice masses in all glaciated regions. We present the first integrated review …

A new physically based approach for calculating glacier ice thickness distribution and
volume is presented and applied to all glaciers and ice caps worldwide. Combining glacier …

Knowledge of the ice thickness distribution of glaciers and ice caps is an important
prerequisite for many glaciological and hydrological investigations. A wealth of approaches …

We present estimates of sea-level change caused by the global surface mass balance of
glaciers, based on the reconstruction and projection of the surface mass balance of all the …

We present a two‐dimensional Glacier Drainage System model (GlaDS) that couples
distributed and channelized subglacial water flow. Distributed flow occurs through linked …

The combination of glacier outlines with digital elevation models (DEMs) opens new
dimensions for research on climate change impacts over entire mountain chains. Of …

The contribution of glaciers to runoff from large‐scale drainage basins in Europe is analyzed
for the major streams originating in the Alps: Rhine, Rhone, Po, and Danube. Detailed …

Cycles of glaciation impose mechanical stresses on underlying bedrock as glaciers
advance, erode, and retreat. Fracture initiation and propagation constitute rock mass …

Global warming is expected to significantly affect the runoff regime of mountainous
catchments. Simple methods for calculating future glacier change in hydrological models are …
